WATFORD defender Tommie Hoban had an eventful Sunday afternoon when he witnessed a burglar fall head first into his car.
So a guy just tried to break into a house, people confronted him, he ran, tripped on the curb, headbutted my car and knocked himself out...

Hoban – who is a regular in the Premier League club’s back-line but is currently sidelined through injury – found the scene hilarious, but his mood soon changed when he realised his car had cushioned the burglar’s fall.
The guy clearly had some brick head though cause he's still managed to dent my car
